Here's a story about a software developer from India (15+years of experience) - who not only helped frontend engineers get a job, but also advocated the change in the type of interviews (having role specific interviews only) and now many companies have accepted the change.

What I wanted to say from the story is - only one person speaking up can bring the change!

Alternatively, you can always politely talk with the HR of the particular company about the things you don't like and would appreciate change. If that does not work, you can reach out to someone on LinkedIn of the same company expressing your grievances and hoping they would take some action. If not, you can always call out such actions!

Also, I highly recommend the book "Whistle Blower" by Susan Fowler, her one blogpost brought massive changes and broke the internet!
